Script runner 4.x API post function issues create sub task JIRA 7.3

Question

Hi!

We are currently trying to upgrade from JIRA 6.2.x to JIRA 7.3. Currently we have especially with Script Runner some issues.

We have a function that on a specific transition a sub task will be created and a person that is filled out in a custom field should be the assignee of the new sub task.

For that we've put the following text into the "Additional issue actions" field:

import com.atlassian.jira.issue.CustomFieldManager
import com.atlassian.jira.ComponentManager

cfParent = com.atlassian.jira.component.ComponentAccessor.getCustomFieldManager().getCustomFieldObjectByName('Team Lead')
parentMyFieldValue = transientVars["issue"].getCustomFieldValue(cfParent)
issue.setAssignee(ApplicationUsers.toDirectoryUser(parentMyFieldValue))

In 6.2 it works flawless, in JIRA 7.3 we are getting several errors:

For Line 3: The variable cfParent is undeclared

For line 4: The variable parentMyFieldValue is undeclared / Cannot find matching method

For line 5: the variable parentMyFieldValue is undeclared / And 2x Cannot find matching method

Hopefully someone can help me

Thanks in advance

Hi Samir, try this:

import com.atlassian.jira.component.ComponentAccessor
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.MutableIssue
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.fields.CustomField
import com.atlassian.jira.user.ApplicationUser

def issue = issue as MutableIssue

def customFieldManager = ComponentAccessor.getCustomFieldManager()
CustomField cfParent = customFieldManager.getCustomFieldObjectByName('Team Lead')
ApplicationUser parentMyFieldValue = issue.getCustomFieldValue(cfParent)
issue.setAssignee(parentMyFieldValue)

Its because cfParent was not strongly typed. Although you see an error in the static type checker in these situations the script should still work.

Its going to be in the next few days, we are actively working on it as the top priority. We have had some issues with the rich text editor and the behaviours functionality. Apologies for the delay.
